drop wifi connection

I would like to schedule a time for all WiFi connections to be dropped, forcing people to reconnect if they need to.
Is it possible to do this type of configuration?

You can configure an recurrent automation stitch  that will disconnect a specific client.

diagnose wireless-controller wlac kickmac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

 

It seems there is no such command to disconnect all clients.

So I think if you need to disconnect all clients without specifying MAC by MAC, you probably need to reboot all APs if it is ok for you.

execute wireless-controller reset-wtp all

Hi @YMDB

 

If you are using FortiAP, there is a schedule setting under SSID configuration: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Explanation-of-auth-timeout-types-for-Fire...

 

Alternatively, you can configure auth-timeout for users: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Explanation-of-auth-timeout-types-for-Fire...
